Christian Belady is the general manager of Data Center Services for Microsoft’s Global Foundation Services (GFS) group. He is responsible for driving the strategy and delivery of server and facility development worldwide, including research, engineering, construction, and operations for Microsoft’s data center portfolio. These data centers provide the foundational cloud infrastructure for over 200 Microsoft online and cloud services worldwide.

In this interview we meet Christian and discuss the evolution of data centers and what you should all know.

It's always a treat to see some of the inner datacenter workings, and the future vision of the datacenter is certainly an interesting area of discussion. Hopefully we'll see more of this type of stuff in the future. Thanks Laura and Christian!

Really interesting, I love to hear how the likes of Microsoft undertake these projects and having the capacity to think and innovate to the next level. I've often looked at those gas flares but never once have I thought about putting a datacentre next to one - great idea & got to be fun if you get to do it.
